If you have T-Mobile Home Internet and you travel to another location, can you bring the gateway with you? If there is a signal it should connect, right?

No.  The gateway is geolocation locked to your local towers of your service address.  It will not work outside of that area.

I have used mine at friend’s house 30 miles away as a test when he was having problems with his.  People use them in RVs.  Try it I don’t think you will have a problem.

IIt depends on the plan. Tmobile is going to lock them to the address on file using GPS on the router. If you want to use them at a different location you will need to sign up for an away plan.

T-Mobile is going to start enforcing this. The Gateway is suppose to be stationary in your home. I believe they are expanding out a new services for people who use it on RV and travel with their Gateway.
